My next book project is going to be something a little different. I have struggled with depression for a long time and I know that so many others in the US and across the world do as well. As an up-and-coming journalist and writer, I always look for stories that interest me which relate to the real world and real people. I have been fascinated with mental illness (depression in this case) and how the mentally ill are treated in the United States.

Hi, I have just published an essay on Amazon about the issue of fossil fuel reserves eventually running out and the need to find renewable alternatives.

This is my first (of hopefully many) self-published pieces dealing with different issues that I want to write about.

I usually charge for pieces that are over 1000 words and take more work. I decided to write this piece because I wanted to cover a topic that not many people pay attention to when it comes to fossil fuel use.

When the world takes stock of how every country is responding to energy needs and climate change concerns, there is often an understandable focus on more “influential” countries like the United States (U.S.), China, Russia, France etc. This focus is not without reason. It makes sense to focus on countries that have a lot of people, political influence in the world, and economies that can move world markets. This focus often leaves out smaller countries that, occasionally, are quietly making great progress on areas like renewable energy and dealing with climate change. Nicaragua is a great example.

I love writing non-fiction. As my publishing site 1223media.com is now up and open to the public, I thought that I would share why I love to write non-fiction. This is not meant to put down any fiction writers. This is just a list of why I prefer to write non-fiction.
